Tasting Note

With its garnet-red colour, our Vosne-Romanée 2014 is characterised by complex notes of red berries, undergrowth and liquorice. The mouth is ample and silky with delicate aromas of undergrowth, blackcurrant and hazelnut. An elegant wine with a great freshness.

Pretty,
offering black cherry, violet and spice flavors on a polished, open-knit
texture. Balanced and enjoyable now, but there is no rush. Drink now through

Vosne-Romanée 2015 - Burghound.com - April 2017 - 90/100

An attractively fresh nose is a pretty
combination of various spice elements, tea and plum scents. The seductively
textured, round and velvety middle weight flavors possess a caressing mouth
feel while delivering fine if not truly distinguished depth and length on the
balanced, mildly firm and austere finale. This should be approachable after
only a few years of bottle though reward as many as ten. 2022+ Allen Meadows (USA)

Vosne-Romanée 2014 - Neil Cammies - U.K - October 2019Aged for 10 to 12 months, 20% new, which gives some heft and
texture to the smoky red fruits on the nose. In the mouth there is a smidge of savoury tones to
the redcurrant fruit that has a little earthiness to it. Long and silky on the finish.

Vosne-Romanée 2014 - Burghound.com - April 2016 - 91/100

This moderately oaked effort is the first wine to display any appreciable reduction which renders an evaluation of the nose difficult. Otherwise there is a really lovely mouth feel to the sleek, vibrant and utterly delicious medium weight flavors that possess a refined mouth feel, all wrapped in a dusty, mouth coating and moderately austere finale. This will need a few years of cellar time first but I like the development potential here. /2021+

Vosne-Romanée 2014 - Wine Spectator - November 2016 - 90/100

A rich, expressive red, laced with cherry, currant, cinnamon and stone flavors. Powerful, packing a punch on the long, mouthwatering finish. Best from 2019 through 2033.
By Bruce Sanderson (USA)

Vosne-Romanée 2013 - Wine Spectator - May 2016 - 91/100

Rich and spicy, this white evokes peach, apple and citrus notes. Bracing acidity tips the balance slightly, while a mineral element emerges on the mouthwatering finish. Best from 2017 through 2024.

Vosne-Romanée 2012 - Wine Enthusiast - December 2015 - 90/100This is well balanced, ripe and with a good link between the structure and the fragrant, perfumed red berries. The wine is full of fruit and acidity while having a core of dark tannins that will allow it to age. It will be best drunk after 2018. By Roger Voss (USA)

Vosne-Romanée 2011 - Wine Spectator - June 2014 - 91/100Floral, strawberry and cherry flavors define this elegant red. The red fruit profile is accented by spice details, firming up on the focused, long finish. Best from 2016 through 2027. By Bruce Sanderson (USA)

Vosne-Romanée 2010 - Burghound.com - April 2012 - 89/100A ripe, spicy and attractive nose is very Vosne in character and this aspect is complemented by the delicious, velvety and seductively round flavors that possess good finishing depth where a touch of wood also arises. By Allen Meadows (USA)

Vosne-Romanée 2010 - Wine Spectator Online USA - October 2013 - 89/100An elegant, firmly structured red, with a linear frame and reserved character setting the stage for currant, cherry and spice flavors. Ends with a savory, mineral element. Best from 2016 through 2033.

Vosne-Romanée 2009 - Burghound.com - May 2011 - 88/100A spicy and overtly ripe nose of cassis and plum merges into supple, delicious and sappy middle weight flavors that exhibit an appealing trace of minerality that adds lift to the mouth coating finish. This should drink well young or age for 5 to 7 years if desired. 2014+. By Allen Meadows (USA).

Vosne-Romanée 2007 - Wine Spectator Online - 2010 - 89/100Round and supple, with cherry and spice flavors backed by firm, well-integrated tannins. This has good length, with a lovely fruit expression. Best from 2011 through 2020. 350 cases made. By Bruce Sanderson, USA.

Vosne-Romanée 2007 - Burghound.com - April 2009 - 87/100A subtle spiciness adds interest and nuance to the lovely, airy and very Vosne-like nose that gives way to rich, round and delicious if only moderately complex flavors that possess an attractive texture on the reasonably persistent finish. There is a small hole on the mid-palate though and it lacks just a bit of overall coherency to be at the next level. 2011+

2001 Vosne-Romannée - Irish Independent - April 27th, 2003 :Among the 2001 reds, I enjoyed the Vosne-Romanée, which is still slightly tannic but will develop well.

2000 Vosne-Romanée - Burghound.com - April 2003 - 86 points :All of the foregoing wines presented aromatics that were decidedly red fruit in character and mostly quite exuberant though this wine was rather different in that there were mostly black fruits that were discreet and understated in style. Hints of Vosne Spic and supple, delicious, easy flavors combine with a persistent if light weight finish and a bit of firmness from the ripe tannic backbone. A good if not exceptional villages. 86/2006-9.
